How do you figure that? I'm showing $21.600 per year at $24/hr for a 75 hour guraantee. Don't include perdiem since its not pay and you won't be getting much on reserve anyway. I make $1 less per hour at RW, but fly 10-20 hours over guarantee each month. I don't see the compensation benefit to Eagle. I had an Eagle FO in my new hire class who is making more on first year pay as a lineholder than he made on second year pay as an Eagle reserve on the -700.
